The History of Recipes

Transcribed cooking instructions as an idea can be tracked back into antiquity, in truth as far back into history as the ancient Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. Interesting though that is, generally, these ancient records were just very basic hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for preparing food.

Later, we have a couple of cookery books published in the fourteenth century : a cookery book published under the title `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. Despite their titles, these are not about the indian food that we all know today, but rather recipes for the types of food on the menues of the upper classes of the period.

Later on in the 1400s, knights returning from the crusades brought us a variety of foods and spices from Arab cuisine, including basil and rosemary. The introduction of these new culinary ideas prompted a torrent in recipe manuscripts, the majority of which are now in private libraries.

The arrival of television brought us TV cooks and the demand for the spin-off recipe books.

And that neatly brings us to the present day and the internet revolution, allowing everyone to access thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on this recipe site.
